Logically speaking, Lin Feng's forte lay in the mid lane.
Back in the day, when he was still the strongest mid laner on the national server, Maple's performance in the S1 World Finals had shaken the entire professional esports circle. From the semifinals to the finals, he had played a total of ten matches against Phoenix and Han Shihao. It was regarded as the pinnacle battle between godly mid laners in the esports circle.
Speaking of the current Nightingale Tournament, there were many strong players, but Lin Feng's current condition had not yet recovered to the peak of his strength. If he wanted to show off in the next round of the world's All-Stars, he had to play the mid laner that he was most proficient in. That would be the most stable way.
However, the purple team's lineup in Group A was a little awkward.
The average strength of the purple team's players was incredible.
Autumn was one of the Four Emperors, Morning Star was one of the Seven Kings, and Golden Flash and Demon were the top players in the Chinese and European servers respectively.
But the problem lay in the composition of the lineup.
Just as Tang Bingyao had said, the other four spots had already been taken by Lin Feng. As for the remaining one ….
There was only one ADC left.
"Oh, I see …"
Lin Feng rubbed his chin thoughtfully, then slapped his thigh.
"It's fine!"
"Then I'll play ADC!"
After pausing for a moment, Lin Feng's face lit up.
"My ADC is pretty good anyway! — — "
… …
In comparison, Lin Feng's other teammates in the purple team were a little doubtful about this.
"That Lin …"
"He played the mid lane in the first few matches, right?"
One of the members sitting behind Morning Star and Wildsnow Nightsong couldn't help but speak up at the God Battle Squad's training ground.
Yan Tian furrowed his brows.
"But now he's only left with one AD."
Another member of God's second team reminded him,
"But didn't Lin also play ADC in the first match?"
Wildsnow Nightsong shook his head.
"I was watching from the sidelines."
"At that time, he was on the bottom lane with Autumn. Although his results were good, his individual ability … wasn't very good."
Huangxue Nightsong's "not too good" was enough to make him a God in the eyes of normal players, but in the eyes of pro players, he was barely passable. Not to mention, this was a god-level battle with an all-star lineup. The strength of an ad-carry player was crucial to the final outcome of the battle.
Morning Star, who was sitting in front of the computer screen, could not help but frown.
"There's no other way …"
"Looking at this lineup, I can only let Lin play ADC."
Although he knew that Lin was a good mid laner, he was also a mid laner. It would be impossible for him to play as an ADC. Moreover, the purple team was up against Moon, one of the Four Emperors. As for Lin's mid laner … he didn't really trust him.
…
At the same time, at the training base of the Bright Light Battle Team in Shanghai, Golden Shimmering, one of the members of the Purple Team in Group A, was also staring at the screen in front of him.
Two Yonkō (Four Emperors) and one J.
And Morning Star, Demon, and the rest?
Golden Shimmering, who was recognized as a top-tier jungler, could not help but swallow his saliva.
F * ck …
This lineup was too scary.
However, soon after, he saw the ID "Lin" on the side of the purple army, and his eyes lit up.
He and Shi Hang were good friends, so he had heard about the identity of the ID "Lin" from Shi Hang the day before.
This match wasn't just a stage for the two Yonkō (Four Emperors) and that mysterious powerhouse J.
After all …
In the past, Maple's status in the professional esports circle was not inferior to that of the current Yonkō (Four Emperors)!
However, Golden Shimmering furrowed his brows. He was a little troubled. He knew that Maple's main position was the mid laner, but the purple team already had Morning Star as their mid laner. Maple couldn't force Morning Star to switch positions with him.
Asking him to play ADC?
Maple's ADC skills …
Was he reliable?
Feeling uncertain, Golden Shimmering quickly sent a message to Shi Hang.
"Hey, how's Maple's ADC skill?"
"I have a world-class all-star lineup for this match, God of War!"
"Maple and Morning Star's positions are in conflict. It seems like he can only play ADC."
Soon, Shi Hang replied with a message.
"Don't worry, he can play ADC!"
A few moments later, another message was sent over to add on.
"That guy's hero pool … is frighteningly deep. There's no position that he can't play!"
His tone was full of certainty and confidence.
…
At this time, Group A of this round of Dark Battle had already entered the BAN phase.
On Purple's side, Lin Feng happily accepted the ADC position without any objections. Very quickly, the lineups of Blue and Purple were confirmed.
Blue team, top laner Lady Blademaster, mid laner Clockwork, jungler Widow, adc Draven, and support Hammerstone.
Purple team, top laner Lady Blademaster, mid laner Clockwork, jungler Widow, adc Draven, and support Hammerstone.
When it was Lin Feng's turn to choose his ADC, Autumn had already taken out her Hammerstone as support, so Lin Feng almost didn't think about it and decided to choose Honorary Executioner Draven.
"Let's play fiercely this round ~"
Someone announced.
At the same time, his eyes swept over the blue team's top laner. His eyes narrowed when he saw Peerless Lady Blademaster's avatar and the "J" in the player's ID.
Finally …
It also allowed him to capture this mysterious guy once.
A top laner who could beat Fatty head-on.
He might even be a newly risen Yonkō?
Such an opponent …
In this round, he would be able to experience it for himself.
…
Under the gazes of Nightingale, the other participants, professional players, and millions of League of Legends players who were taking a break, Group A of the Dark Battle finally began.
Lin Feng hurriedly bought his outfit from the base's spring, then quickly piloted his Draven towards the wilderness.
At the same time, Autumn's support, Hammerstone, followed beside him.
"A support of the Yonko!"
Lin Feng glanced at the Warden behind him and sighed with satisfaction.
"I haven't been treated like this in a long time."
At the same time, Autumn, who was the support Hammerstone, was also looking at Draven with an indifferent gaze.
He still remembered the match where he and Lin worked together on the bottom lane.
This guy …
The skill level of an ADC was pretty bad.
It seemed that in this match, he would have to rely on himself as a support to take care of the bottom lane.
The game lasted for a little over two minutes.
The Widow Jungler helped Golden Twinkle kill a few of the Giant Toads. Immediately after, Lin Feng and Autumn's duo rushed towards the bottom lane.
At the same time, the blue team's bottom lane, Obama and Morgana, also came online.
The two sides officially entered the stage of the match.
3 minutes 05 seconds.
Lin Feng, who was the first to reach Level 2, controlled Draven to take the initiative and press forward. A Q skill, Spinning Flying Axe, whistling through the air.
Ping! — —
Blood splattered on the blue team's ADC, Obama.
At the same time, Autumn's support, Hammerstone, used a Q skill, "Death Sentence", and his scythe chain shot out. Morgana, the blue team's support, had yet to learn her E skill, Shield, and the Holy Spear Ranger was instantly crowd-controlled.
Lin Feng's Draven continued to follow up.
His attacks were smooth and uninterrupted.
Autumn's support, Hammerstone, followed up with a second Q skill. As soon as he landed, he was stunned by Morgana's Q skill.
The moment Obama broke free from Hammerstone's hook, the blue team's ADC, who had just reached level 2, immediately used his E skill to move back and escape.
Lin Feng, who had calculated the timing, tapped the E key on the keyboard like lightning.
"Cleaving Axe!"
The cold and sharp axe suddenly flew out!
It interrupted Lucian's movement in mid-air!
The Holy Spear Ranger's body staggered back to the ground. Fortunately, Obama's reaction speed was just as fast. Without any hesitation, he immediately used [Heal], which allowed him to quickly recover his HP and escape.
But Draven's actions had already made Autumn's eyes narrow slightly.
The indifference on the face of the World God of Assistance was finally replaced by surprise.
This Lin …
He seems to be different from before.
